Responsive, patient, and a true delight to work with

Diane was an outstanding choice as our wedding planner, demonstrating unparalleled involvement from the start. With excellent contacts in the Outer Banks area, she showcased remarkable patience, friendliness, and responsiveness. Diane not only listens carefully to your requests but also goes the extra mile to find vendors that align perfectly.

One standout quality is her non-intrusive approach; she never imposes decisions but rather guides you through the process. When we had to decide to get wed on the beach or at the venue, Diane provided hourly weather updates to help us make an informed decision. Her excellence extends to guest interactions, addressing their questions with grace.

We are thoroughly pleased with Diane's services and highly recommend her for your once-in-a-lifetime fairy tale event. Her responsiveness to emails and calls further underscores her dedication to making the entire wedding planning experience seamless and enjoyable.

The best in the business

We can’t thank Diane enough. She is the reason our wedding was such a success. She is organized, smart, thoughtful, and so determined to give you the best day. The most stressful parts of planning a wedding, I did not have to lift a finger because Diane had it covered. I am so grateful that we found her. I will recommend her to anyone getting married in the Outer Banks. You really will not find anyone better.

Nordstrom Events are pros. I have had the pleasure of working with Diane, the vision that the brides and grooms have given her was fulfilled. Beautiful tables, arches, flowers the total package. It all looks effortless (but we know how much work is put in each and every event), you can put your event in her capable hands. I look forward to working with Diane and her team in the future.
